Toyota is temporarily stopping production in Japan due to the recent earthquake that's affecting their key supplier, Riken. A few other Japanese auto manufacturers are affected as well. Looks like it'll only be a three day stoppage for now, but it could go longer.
Hopefully, all will be well with Riken, so Toyota can resume production and there won't be a shortage of 4Runners. Future 4Runner owners might want to snap up theirs now.
